We've paid in time
Looking for a way we could
Stay divine
No it ain't right
So we change minds
I don't want to try say that it's a
Major crime
Too late to rise
From the bottom up
I'll call your bluff
Behind the closed doors
Communicate like
Morse code
And so forth
It's unknown

But the torch light
Leads to your home
As we play with lives
For our own good
- self-destructive
Notions
- our demise is
Closer
But the price to pay
To fight the wane and ebb
In life to make a dime
And never leave a trace
Of crime
Your face begins to say it's
Otherwise
-
And so does mine

From one theory to another
We can never fully stop understanding
Who are we to change what cannot be changed
Just for progress

- Don't make it up
(at the start of the day they will)
Take what runs
(but the martyrs and saints lose
Faith and trust)
(it's hard to obtain when the stakes are
Us)
Cultural political
The facets of society
It doesn't make sense
With irrational authority
-
But I digress
The lies we stretch
From books we read

- It's personal
The worse it turns
To merciful
To pick and choose
What fits our views
It's this which proves
The opinion's true
- It's pitiful
What can we do
(Is it manageable?)
I guess we're doomed
No matter what
From test tubes
To hell, soon

It's not the belief that is bothersome
It's the conviction that it's the only belief
And the blatant disregard for what is logical and what is reasonable

To believe without reason?
Or to only believe in reason?
